It Take a Nation of Millions To Hold Us Back - Public Enemy
I could have gone either way on Straight Outta Compton or Public Enemy - Nation of Millions. Those are the 2 greatest albums of the time period in my estimation. I flipped a coin and went PE.RaceBannon said:For the cultural significance

It's Tricky to try and pick one. I feel like Raising Hell is that start of Rap's best 10 year stretch- i.e., 1986- 96.GrundleStiltzkin said:Raising Hell is the tits two. ABundance

Straight Outta Compton - N.W.A.But PE is the shit.

Straight Outta Compton - N.W.A.Straight Outta Compton launched the greatest era of rap, the greatest sub genre of rap (gangsta rap), and introduced two of raps greatest talents (Cube and Dre).
Without straight outta Compton and the style and talents it brought to the world, there would be no Death Row Records and thus no Death No Defense.
Eazy call.
